I've had 3 Quantum SCSI hard drives fail on me and one SCSI Seagate. Fortunately I had CD backups but those crashes caused considerable trouble and expense.Maybe I'm unlucky but I've also had motherboard failures in the last 12 months. The first caused me to ditch the desktop and get another. So help me if the new motherboard did not have a heart failure after only a few weeks and had to be replaced :-( under warranty.
So perhaps you can understand my scepticism about reliability!
These days I use this HP notebook more than the desktop and the notebooks have the reputation of poorer reliability than desktops so I guess I'm a devil for punishment.
